To My Goochland Family,

After 20 years at GoochlandCares, I’m writing to share that I’ll be retiring at the end of December.

It’s hard to put into words how much these years have meant to me. I’ve had the privilege of working with wonderful people, watching GoochlandCares grow, and being part of a community that truly cares about helping our neighbors in need.

But what I’ll treasure most are the friendships and relationships I’ve made along the way. Our volunteers, donors, clients, and supporters have made these years so special. Sharing our clients’ stories and seeing the generosity of this community firsthand has been incredibly rewarding.

Before I go, I’d love one more chance to celebrate with you! Please join me for a Retirement Open House on November 18th.Everyone is welcome, and it’s free to attend.

And I promise, for once, there won’t be a fundraising ask!

While retiring is bittersweet, I’m excited about what’s ahead, both for me and for GoochlandCares. I know I’m leaving the organization in wonderful hands with Andrea Ahonen, our CEO, and a dedicated staff who will continue to carry our mission forward.

Thank you for your friendship, generosity, and support over the years. You’ve made this journey so special, and I hope to see many of you on November 18th!

With heartfelt thanks,

Adair Frayser, Major Gifts Officer
